Newpa Layout


Today I am bringing you a layout that I did recently of my grandpa, Jay and I.  Jalyn as two grandpa's and a great grandpa still alive.  She doesn't call any of them grandpa and as her own name for them all.  Her great grandpa she calls newpa.  This came from me in a way.  She doesn't get to see her great grandpa that much so sometimes it is like meeting a whole new person over again with her.  We see him about once a year maybe twice.    In her short life she as seen him about 4 times.  When I was trying to explain to her who we were going to see she kept asking if we were going to see my dad.  I kept saying no we are going to see a new grandpa.  Then she finally started to understand and said we are going to see a newpa.  I said yes a new one.  So the name stuck.  Now she as a 'newpa'.

There is my long random story about the title of my layout.  One thing that doing project life as taught me this year is that it is ok to do things in my own handwriting and have it out there for the world to see instead of always doing hidden journaling.  While in some cases I will always love hidden journaling, I'm embracing seeing my own handwriting on my LOs.

Hope you enjoy looking!
